In the Service of Dragons by Robert StanekDescription: The Elves of the Reaches returned from exile, bringing grave news. War came to the Kingdoms. Many perished in the turmoil and unrest. An attempt was made to kidnap a princess and assassinate a king. Now, from the ancient past a dark power returns. 'The Fourth Wind blows across the mountain tops,' they say. And the Twelve Clans emerge from myth and memory.
As prophecy becomes reality, the factions struggle for control, only to further divide the lands. Some would say that King Andrew Alder foolishly agreed to support the Elves of the Reaches, sending men to aid their cause when the causes of all Men in all lands were being put to the test of steel. And in the North, men back their words with action.
Against a backdrop of treachery and intrigue, murder and mayhem, the price of freedom is high. Many will pay with their lives. Many will succumb to imprisonment and enslavement. For when alliances shatter, old hatreds rise anew and the plotting and scheming begin.
Bold, inventive, brilliantly imagined, In the Service of Dragons is a novel of magic and wonder—a tale of pure excitement you will not soon forget.
Also in this series are The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches, The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches II, The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches III, The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches IV, In the Service of Dragons II, In the Service of Dragons III, In the Service of Dragons IV
